Why People Write Poetry

I think people write poetry because it's meaningful. Some people write poetry because it might mean something to them. Like they can write about their life or how they feel and others write just because. About two years ago when my boyfriend/best friend died I was writing in a journal and I would talk to him in it. I would mostly let him know how much I miss him or I would write down the good memories we had. If I were to write poetry then I'd definitely write about stuff that means something. Like If I like the weather that day or how my life is going. Poetry to me is like country. It talks about life stuff. It's not like rap. Rap just talks about getting money and living the good life but country talks about real life stuff and means a lot more to people. It's way more understanding.
